Rudolf Bing writes, 14 December 1939, “...in the particular case of Glyndebourne it seems essential for its survival of the present dreadful times that its name should be kept before the public eye…”

He continues, “It would be a great help to us if our numerous American friends would through the medium of the New York Times be informed that Glyndebourne is still alive and active and, in spite of the war, is trying to keep the flag of art flying.”
